Re: WK1 Valley @ Portsmouth

I think some of the Trojans Critics are selling Valley short. I guess I didn't realize they had 19 of 21 starters back from last year. They are likely the best team in our area. I thought Cole Lowery was fairly accurate when he had some time to throw and Austin Hollins ran well. It still seemd to me...

Re: Valley @ Portsmouth

This game has been close for the last few years and I expect The Trojans to stay close in this one. Portsmouth has some talented kids but has failed to develop depth which always shows after a few weeks into the season. Yes defense has been poor but its the lack of depth that is hurting. Here's hopi...

Was Portsmouth on The Radio Last Night?

I know that WNXT was having Phone trouble last night but around 7:30 the Burg/Minford game popped on the air and I believe West/Waverly came on 107.5 around then too. 1260 am continued to carry fox sports radio unless I missed something. I kind of understand the longer trips not being aired. Warren ...

Re: 8/30 Valley @ Portsmouth

Based on how last years teams finished, I really wonder how last years game was as close as it was. I think Valley made great strides as last year progressed so I'd give the Indians the edge but I think this will be a little closer than some folks are expecting. Very anxious to see the new look Troj...

Re: Portsmouth 2013

I have quite a few young kids in my neiborhood and I am seeing somewhat of a disinterest in the sport in general. Portmouth needs more than one Pee Wee team and yet 3 teams is probably too many based on the interest. Two teams that compete in a Scioto County League would be fine but we would be spre...

with the Portsmouth Basketball alumni site. Can you contact me jchabot@myfrontiermail.com. A house cleaning has resulted in me finding some old save newspapers and programs.

Re: Hey STO - How about showing the semi-finals?

I think it has to do with the OHSAA and attendance. I used to love the finals at St John Arena. It held 13,000. The schott holds, give or take, close to 19,000. A crowd of 11 or 12 thousand still looked almost full at SJA. That same crowd makes the schott look half empty. I'd love to see it move bac...

Re: PORTSMOUTH VS OTTAWA-GLANDORF Final 4

OG has had a great run the last 15 years or so. If I recall, the won state titles in 04 and 08. I remember they had a couple red headed brothers that gave LaBron James and SVSM fits in a couple of regionals and then won it after LaBron left. It should be interesting. At this stage, throw out the rec...

Re: 3-17 (7:30 pm) Ironton vs Portsmouth (Regional Finals)

I know Dave will have this but I'm trying to remember some Portsmouth/Ironton tourney games form the past. I think there have been some great ones, just not that many. I don't think any Trojan fan could forget 1979. Possibly our best team losing in a District Championship. I also recall played at Sh...

Re: (14-2) Peebles @ (15-2) Portsmouth, 2/7

I was fairly impressed with Peebles in the first half. Only they know how big of a game it was too themselves. Sometimes, when you overhype a matchup one team wears emotionally and physically thin after the initial burst of energy. The Indians were kind of toast at the beginning of the second half w...

Re: Wheelersburg @ Portsmouth week 3

After last years game I was pleased with The Trojans effort for four quarters. West did pretty much dominate the line of scrimmage though. Not sure about this weeks game. If Wheelersburg did lose everything up front and it becomes a matchup of speed The Trojans may have a sleight edge. I look for an...

Re: S.E.O.A.L. A HORSE RACE

I think The Trojans will win some games within the conference and possibly spring a big upset along the way. We had a state semifinal basketball team last year and very few of those kids played football a year ago. This year, most of them are out, so I think the SEOAL might be a little surprised at ...

Good Point Trojan7. So far from what I can tell almost every school that has withdrawn from the SEOAL has do so, in part, due to travel expenses.

Re: Portsmouth Trojans Football 2011

I'm looking forward to this year. High expectations are great but there are times when they come back to haunt you. I'm going to measure this years team on improvement through the season. I think the first three games will all be very tough. Hopefully we will learn from them, get better, and not suf...

Re: Chesapeake vs. Portsmouth - Regional Final - 3-19

Win or lose, The Trojans could say they've had a good year. I think Chesapeake fans might be surprised at The Trojans on Saturday. They tend to play to the level of competition. That being said, The Panthers are probably the Best team in The Region but, PROVE IT or else.
